LiveO2 uses Adaptive Contrast Technology to enhance oxygen delivery and utilization throughout the body by dynamically switching between oxygen-rich and oxygen-reduced air during exercise or controlled breathing. This process creates a powerful physiological response that stimulates capillary dilation, increases cellular energy production, and supports detoxification. Here’s how it works:
- Oxygen-Rich Air (Hyperoxia):
- Provides an abundance of oxygen to tissues, enabling the body to saturate red blood cells and optimize oxygen delivery to vital organs.
- Facilitates rapid recovery by replenishing oxygen-deprived areas and clearing metabolic waste.
- Oxygen-Reduced Air (Hypoxia):
- Temporarily lowers oxygen availability, mimicking the effects of high-altitude training.
- Stimulates the body’s natural stress response, causing capillaries to dilate and boosting the efficiency of oxygen absorption.
- Adaptive Contrast:
- Alternates between hyperoxia and hypoxia to “train” the vascular system.
- This contrast conditions the body to handle stress more effectively while improving circulation and oxygen utilization at the cellular level.
- Physiological Effects:
- Improved Circulation: Enhanced blood flow delivers more oxygen and nutrients to stressed or damaged tissues.
- Increased Cellular Energy: Boosts ATP production in the mitochondria, the powerhouse of cells.
- Detoxification: Helps flush toxins trapped in oxygen-deprived tissues.
- Enhanced Immune Function: Promotes white blood cell activity and supports overall immune health.
- Recovery and Performance: Speeds up muscle repair, reduces fatigue, and increases endurance.
- Core Technology:
- The LiveO2 system utilizes an air separator to create oxygen-rich air and an oxygen reservoir to store it.
- A user-friendly mask and switching mechanism allow seamless transitions between oxygen levels, making it easy to perform Adaptive Contrast training.
